Simply a Good Day

You know how you feel when you have just had a good day...just simply that...not extraordinarily unique, not shout from the highest mountain...just a wonderfully simple good day? That is how I feel right now. Did I do anything amazing or out of the ordinary? No. Did I just enjoy a day doing mundane life stuff that just simply made me happy? YES!!!!! I will prove nothing amazing transpired...just good.

• Started the day at 7:30 am. (Yeah, no longer can sleep in, but what can you do?)
• Made spice muffins from scratch (first time I have baked in a while...felt so good!)
• Slipped back into bed to read a bit...fell a sleep for a wee nap.
• Showered, dressed in a simple sun dress, got ready, ate lunch.
• Walked the Vail Farmer's Market, finding only 3 "farmers" stands, but got some yummy tomatoes, corn and pea pods!
• Went to Blockbuster to pick up a few new movies (Blood Diamond and Little Children)
• Stopped at Home Depot and Wal-Mart for some flowers, plants, supplies and dirt!
• Called my Dad...it is Father's Day!!!!
• Had some juicy watermelon for a treat.
• Walked to the library, returned some books and got a couple of new ones (a novel set during the Bubonic Plague and O, Pioneers!)
• Walked to our local lake, sat in the grass, under the bright blue sky and sun, read a few chapters of O, Pioneers!
• Came home, made dinner (BLT and corn on the cob...wonderfully delightful)!.
• Played in the dirt, planting all of my new flowers! (which I will probably kill, but it is nice to have other life in the condo with me!)
• Talked with my sister.
• Watched Blood Diamond.

Not one amazing or life altering event today. Just a lot of little things that brought joy. Maybe I could have more days like this if I just let them be and be happy with the smallest things in life. Sometimes I really think I get in my own way. Not today...just a simply wonderful day! Hope you have one too!
